Very nice Robert, and I can see the reasoning for the changes that you point out.
And the cook you posted about your friends weekend supper with this was an example of how it works.
You are the user and the builder so that is great that you can practice and then rethink and rebuild. Albeit time consuming and sort of costly
Buying from store than realizing that it is just not what was wanted would cost ( me ) $$$.
As a worker of wood .... my builds would go up in flames with each cook, lol
